<br />
In Trnsys 17, I made a very simple test : two little air-nodes superposed, forming part of a thermal zone.<br />
There is only one windows facing south, at the first floor. I ditn't made anything else.<br />
<br />
<strong>Case 1 : Simple radiation model</strong><br />
Quite realistically, the second floor is warmer.<br />
<br />
<strong>Case 2 : Detailed radiation model</strong><br />
The 2 air-nodes have their temperatures centered around the same value and very near, except that the first floor has more extreme temperature variations.<br />
<br />
I want to illustrate the hot air elevation by a simple example, but I'm not sure of the phenomenon that are taken into account.<br />
<br />
Thank you !</span></span></span></span>
